There are so many reasons why a project schedule could fail. It all depends on the specific unique project circumstances: It could be due to poor project management, force majeure conditions, broken communication, etc.

Agreed with Rami. It is difficult to pin down one reason. In my experience, the change of priorities halfway through the project is one of the recurrent causes.
A different perspective than my virtual colleagues is that often the failure is squarely at the hands of senior management who made a commitment to an unrealistic date well in advance of when any degree of confidence could be established and then made the project manager and team accountable for meeting that date.

While "fails" has to be clarify let me say schedules do not fail. What usually fail is people that manage the schedule thinks that it is "write into a stone". All inside a project are candidate to change and the person who is in charge to manage the project has to be aware on that.
While there are many reason and the question is quite generic in nature , i will add few pointers stakeholder management, maturity of requirement, team alignment to the task, effective communication, early start or unforseen reason not maintained in the RAID etc.
